    The ole 5-way rotary sw....Has it been relegated to history's dust bin?

    Sorry for my ignorance here, but what does “mfr’d” mean? That green is so nice, especially with the matching headstock and dark natural back. Wow. I’m a fan of the 5 way in my CE24, but I also like my CU22 that was converted to a toggle and push/pull. I’ve thought about restoring it to a 5...

    PRS SE Models - Do They Have the Same “Essence” As Core Models?

    I completely understand that when someone new comes into a conversation with opinions that aren’t what the majority believes, that that person should be ready to face the repercussions. For the most part, everyone has been fine here, and I have absolutely no problem with anyone disagreeing with...

    PRS SE Models - Do They Have the Same “Essence” As Core Models?

    I tried to let this thread die because I was asked to do so in a snarky and unpleasant way. Also, I feel that I’ve been mocked by several people here because my options differ from theirs. I’ve done my best to be non-confrontational nor rude, but I understood from the beginning that my opinions...

    PRS SE Models - Do They Have the Same “Essence” As Core Models?

    I apologize if you were not addressing me, but as I am the OP of the thread, I assumed your statement was directed at my opinions. I was using the first part of your statement as a succinct example of how many commenters seem to think that I don’t like SEs, and I have been repeatedly trying...

    PRS SE Models - Do They Have the Same “Essence” As Core Models?

    Lol - I actually just did change the title, as well as modified a sentence in the first post that I thought was causing the most issue. I still stand by my opinions though.

    PRS SE Models - Do They Have the Same “Essence” As Core Models?

    I don’t understand why anyone thinks that I don’t like them. I have said that I think that they’re great multiple times here. Please read beyond the title of the thread for context.

    You can only choose one of these four guitars!

    Gotta vote Gumby here…

    Just to clarify though, have all non SE acoustics always been Private Stock examples?

    PRS SE Models - Do They Have the Same “Essence” As Core Models?

    I believe that 3 out of the 5 Cores that I’ve have has “IT”, but none of the 4 SE I’ve owned does. I’d like to know what’s different about those 3 Cores than almost any other electric solidbody guitars I’ve played. See my last post as I think John says it better than I ever could.

    PRS SE Models - Do They Have the Same “Essence” As Core Models?

    Just found this newest PRS interview with one of my guitar heroes. I’ve had the pleasure of meeting him twice, and he’s been very friendly and accommodating to a random fan both times. Anyway, what John says beginning at 14:05 in the interview is that “magical” thing that I’ve been trying to...

    Sorry man, but I have no idea to what you’re referring. Is it some type of inside joke thing around here?

    PRS SE Models - Do They Have the Same “Essence” As Core Models?

    I really like SEs, and I think they’re great guitars, especially at their prices. But I’ve ended up gifting all the ones that I’ve owned to friends or family, simply because while they were great, I didn’t experience that special something that most of my Cores have. The reason that I’ve...

    PRS SE Models - Do They Have the Same “Essence” As Core Models?

    Thanks for your input. I don’t blame you for not wanting to read through this whole thread, but a page or so back, I tried to explain how I felt about Gibson/Epiphone and Fender US/Japan/Mexico, as well as a few other brands with import variants. I basically said that I find many Mexican and...
